Some things to report this day in baseball.

Tom Seaver and the Oklahoma City Colts blanked the Halifax Eclipse 1-0 today behind 16 strikeouts over 8 innings. Saver continues to shine allowing just 5 hits in the 8 innings. The Oklahoma City offense came on an RBI single by Chris Richard. Ryan Secret of Halifax told the press after the game "I have not seen anyone have that type of command this season, he was mowing us down, look out for him"

While one young pitcher thrived another got bad news as Calgary Fusion starting pitcher Juan Marichal found out today he is done for the season with elbow tendinitis. He sustained that injury in a game against the Fargo Horseman which was his 16th win of the season as Calgary beat Fargo 6-1.

The Detroit Tigers were the first team to clinch their division, the AL Central with an 11-1 win over the Branson Jackals. Detroit is looking to regain their World Series winning form which they accomplished in 2022 but were knocked out surprisingly in 2023 in the playoffs by the Seattle Mariners.
